- In my most humble opinion, without trying to start a flame war, this thread should be moved to the "gear and rigging" forum because it looks to me like an important issue that should be answered by people qualified to do so and that we could all benefit from it.

It's pretty easy to see that I am a rigger, though if you don't believe it... Ya could ask!

Having a rigger rating does not actually mean shit. many people have a rigger rating there who i would not give my rig to...and in other countries (my included) your senior rigger rating is only a packer rating.
